Should I ebay a Starret #199 level? Bandsaw?

I (being British) have a Hilger and Watts Precision level that I have only used three times so far. My advice is that you should not get rid of yours. You might have no use for it now, but when you do, you won't be happy if you sold it.

This advice is worth what you paid for it :-)

I was thinking...I could borrow yours.

Internationally shipping a glass vial of ether surrounded by cast iron? I'd probably end up on indefinite holiday at Guantanamo Bay

The weather's nice!

Sounds interesting. They got a workshop I could use?

As someone who has bought one on eBay, I would say on behalf of other potential buyers -- "Sell it!".

But -- as an owner of machine tools, I would say "Keep it!"

Is that a horizontal bandsaw, or a vertical one?

Horizontal would be maximum width below blade, and maximum height that the frame will clear as the blade finishes the cut.

Vertical would be distance between the blade and the column which houses and protects the return path of the blade -- and as a second dimension, the maximum thickness which could be cleared with the upper guide at its highest setting.

Enjoy, DoN.

I think it faces east!
